A 2025 study in BMC Oral Health used eye-tracking technology to investigate how varying degrees of mandibular asymmetry influence visual perception among orthodontists and non-professionals . Analyzing gaze behavior across images with 2–8 mm simulated chin deviations , researchers found that while the direction of asymmetry did not affect attention, greater deviations (8 mm) drew faster and more focused visual fixations toward the lower lip–chin area . Orthodontists showed heightened diagnostic sensitivity with fewer pre-fixations in severe asymmetry cases, highlighting professional perceptual precision. The findings emphasize that increasing asymmetry significantly alters visual attention patterns, offering valuable insights for esthetic assessment and orthodontic treatment planning.
